LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(1) Letters to be considered for this ■ column must not exceed 150 words. They should be on only one side of the paper; preferably typewritten, otherwise clearly written in ink; and ample margins and space between lines should be left for convenience in sub-editing. (2> A legible signature and full address—not a P.O. box number are required whether these are to be printed or not (3) The correspondent must say whether the letter has been or is to be submitted elsewhere (4> rhe editor cannot return or keep any letter not accepted for printing: nor does he undertake to acknowledge or enter into correspondence concerning tetters, although an acknowledgement will be made where this seems to be necessary or helpful. (5) As a genera) rule, correspondence on news items in other publications, or carried on radio and television, is not acceptable. Herk.—No space to discuss the merits of various sports. Onlooker. —Something for the club concerned to take up with the sub-union. Quaere. —Probably just a stunt to attract attention. The police can be relied upon to stop any such nonsense. Right Thinker.—Just the sort of discussion most likely to arouse interest in what will no doubt be a temporary fad for the few who are silly enough to waste their money on it Sydenham Supporter. Your understanding of the basis of selection of games differs from ours; but it is surely a matter for the dub to take up with the union if it is not satisfied. Roar of the Crowd.—Bad sportsmanship on the bank is increasingly common. It is often attributed to too much partisanship, too much booze, too little knowledge of the game. Let us hope the Lancaster Park crowd will not give the same cause for shame.
